You're right of course, ever the mischievous one after the hassle I was
given ( not by yourself) over the House Crow on Philip Island. Just
stirring.

Tony,

Indeed it may have been ship assisted as many vagrants and our regular
migrants are. But since boats and ships are a natural part of the modern
world and we are never going to know whether or not any migrant we see
took advantage of a rest on a ship, oil-rig, buoy, or human flotsam or
jetsam all are countable. If you have not seen birds sitting on the like
you haven't been to sea enough. Would the 'some' you refer to have us
not count birds sitting on a power-line, a sewage treatment pond or a
reservoir? So there is no such disqualification.

A mischievous rather than wicked thought, I suggest.
